ARTIST OF THE MONTH:
PAUL MCCLOSKEY
Artist Paul McCloskey likes to think of his
photography as painting with a sacred
light. He believes this to be as much an
artistic technique as a philosophy on the
creative process and living creatively. He
attempts to portray and communicate not
only the breathtaking beauty in nature, but
also the ambiance and spirit of it using natural light to help “paint” his photographs.
McCloskey considers himself to be somewhat of a “digital alchemist,” and refers to
his art/work as “Photo-Painting,” - a convergence of today’s digital photography/imaging technology with digital
printmaking and the fine art of plein-air painting. “It’s all about light,” McCloskey
states.
